Quirky Baltimore
Baltimore is a great city to walk in as most blocks in this city have wonderful things to see and enjoy, but there are also strange things to see as you walk the city. One of the strange things that we have noted over the years during our walks is that there are always clothes on the sidewalks. You can be walking down North Charles Street and then you sight a shoe, very rarely do you find two, and another day a pair of pants on Maryland Avenue, while the following week you find a shirt and a capon St. Paul St . It looks like each previous evening some individual started to disrobe on the street until he/she got to their destination which makes you wonder, does Baltimore have a mysterious Nudist Camp? When it gets dark, do people run to this encampment preparing to be a nudist on arrival ? The next time you walk around your neighborhood and you see a sign that says “This way to the Nudist Camp” please let me know. This really is a puzzlement, as the King quotes from the “The King and I”.

I was walking in Druid Hill Park the winter before last right after a snow fall of about 6". I came across tracks of a barefoot person. People do seem to be throwing off clothes of various sorts all of the time.
ReplyDeleteI think we probably just have a hippy commune somewhere, not a nudist colony.
Today at the corner of Maryland Avenue and 27th Street is a pile of clothing, which appears to be a complete set, minus the shoes and socks. We also saw a guy walking around shirtless and I guess this is just the Rites of Spring, sans the music, not the call of a Nudist Colony I thought it might be. What next will we find?
